I have to admit, I am ready to uninstall AVG from my machines. The constant interruptions by popup screens telling me that I am looking good on security, or telling me that they will randomize my profile in XX minutes. I really don't CARE about these things.
Another thing that bothers me is that AVG will actually keep me from connecting to my home or office internet, simply to congratulate me on having whatever level of security I have. More than once I have been stymied in trying to connect, and about 10 seconds later, a screen pops up to tell me my machine is secure. When I close that popup, my PC will connect to the internet!!
AVG should do it's job silently, in the background, and not add more annoyance to a world that is already annoying enough. "Neither seen nor heard," should be AVG's motto, and if I need something done, I will go to the AVG menu and get it done. Don't nag me about it!!
Don't know about the full-feature version, but the free version of AVG has a big banner right on top of the main screen:
'Silent mode is turned on'
with a turn off/on button next to it.

Wow… I replied once, but the system threw away my reply.
I appreciate the info, bork, but my AVG has had the Silent Mode turned on for some time now.
